At 98 years young, Dorothy underwent a heart valve replacement yesterday—and today, she walked out of Borgess Heart Institute, stronger than ever!
A true testament to resilience, expert care, and the power of modern medicine. Honored to have played a small part in her journey.

Thank you, @WMUMedicine, for sharing our story about Rachel! We know she will make an outstanding physician!
A year before she came to #WMed, @kcollege alumna Rachel Kramer spent 10 weeks in Ghana investigating health inequities and researching Neglected Tropical Diseases. A story about Kramer’s experience was one of K’s top 10 student stories of 2023 ow.ly/RS0q50QnyPZ #WMed2027
